Gastro cant seem to figure out what I have but I have been experiencing watery stools and constipation. The diarrhea doesn't wake me up but when I go to the restroom its watery. Sometimes I have to urge to use the restroom but nothing comes out. Upper left abdominal is slightly swollen. It feels as if something is pushing on the wall/ribs. I can feel like a knot with my finger. left side is normal. In addition, i can hear my intestines rumbling especially at night/morning. Blood work is good. Ultrasound showed a non-alcoholic fatty liver. Stool test is negative. Could this be IBS?
